Vehicle detector is optimized for detecting the zones of 6 meters in length and 2 meters in width.

Setting up the detection zone is performed in the video frame with the help of a graphic tool.

 

If the zone is setup approximately, to scale the zone in the frame one should use a road marking or nearby objects (curbing, hatches etc.).
 

 

 

Info
titleNote.

In this case area's topographic parameters should be preliminary determined.

 

For zone's length accurate setup one should use cones, paint or other ways of the road marking .The distance between marks along the line should be 6 meters and zone's length should be correspondingly setup.
 

 

 

Note
titleAttention!

Value of systematic errors depends on the value of zone's length errors.

Zone's width and its cross position in respect of the line's center can be varied to diminish the effect of the traffic cross overlap, moving by the next lines. 

To provide the detector's algorithm efficient operation the zone size in the frame must occupy from 2 to 20 percent of the frame's area. If possible the detection zones have to be in that part of the frame, where the scale is greater (it is usually in the bottom).
